Definitions

  • This invention relates to a machine for continuously forming packing-boxes made of semi-rigid material and previously stored in a flat folded position, whereby each box is formed by said machine in a parallelepipedal shape and presented for filling in the most suitable position.
  • the packing-boxes referred-to are usually made up of four faces which are assembled in such a manner as to form a body of continuous tubular structure having a transverse cross-section in the shape of a parallelogram.
  • said parallelogram is fairly freely articulated at each apex in order to permit either folding of the box in a relatively flat double thickness in a magazine, or opening of the box to a suitable extent so as to form a tube which affords the requisite volume
  • the transverse cross-sectional configuration mentioned above may even be a rectangle if necessary.
  • Packing-boxes of the type under consideration usually have flaps which form extensions of the box faces and are hinged with said faces. These flaps are thus disposed along the terminal arrises of the end sections of this tubular structure and hinged along said arrises in the same manner as the faces are hinged with each other.
  • the term packing-box will therefore be replaced in the remainder of the description b the word carton, although it will be understood that the principle of the invention is not intended to be limited to machines which only make use of this type of packaging material In order to effect the opening then the forming of similar boxes or cartons, two mechanized techniques are at present in use.
  • the opening is formed by inserting wedge-shaped members between the flaps, then by causing a lever to produce action inside the main walls of the carton which is thus erected and held open until the bottom has been closed
  • action is produced on the outside of the main walls by suction which is exerted prior to a movement of outward separation of lines of suction-cups which cause the carton to open.
  • the first method mentioned above calls for a certain degree of stiffness of the flaps and a good shape of the free edges whilst the second method entails the need to ensure that the walls have an excellent state of surface. Such conditions are all incompatible with cartons which are intended for re-use.
  • the machine according to the invention differs from comparable designs of the prior art in that the opening of cartons is initiated by mainly producing action on the flaps which have previously been oriented in a suitable manner, said flaps being powerfully clamped at suitable locations by means of suitable devices, the presentation of said flaps in front of said devices being effected in a reliable and original manner, in that the positional arrangement of the cover flaps for the purpose of filling is carried out even if said flaps lack rigidity, all of these features being such that the machine is perfectly suited to the utilization of cartons for reuse, and in that sealing of the base of the carton is governed only by devices which serve to indicate the presence of cartons and which are necessary for the operation of the machine, the simplicity of the application and guiding members both in their constructional design and in their movement, thereby ensuring reliable sealing and easy manual operation.
  • the present invention relates to a process and a machine for shaping cartons which are presented in the folded state, said machine being capable of continuously supplying a boxing machine to which the cartons must be presented in the open state, any flaps which are provided on said cartons being turned back, on the one hand, in order to for-m the base of the carton. and, on the other hand, in order to free the opening of the carton.
  • the process of the invention for forming cartons which are presented in the folded state and comprise a tubular body and flaps, is characterized in that two op- Patented June 24, 1969 3 posite flaps of each opening face are brought away from the initial plane of transfer of the folded carton and at least one of said flaps is subjected to a force which has a tendency to withdraw said flap from the transfer plane in such a manner as to initiate the opening of said tubular body.
  • the carton may be held by means of those flaps on which said force is not exerted and in order to bring the flaps away from the initial transfer plane, the folded carton may be caused to move in such a manner that said flaps are lifted relatively to the initial transfer plane and a force is applied on the tubular body itself which brings back said body alone in said transfer plane.
  • the forming machine according to the invention and working according to the above process therefore comprises means whereby two opposite flaps of each opening face are brought away from the initial plane of transfer of the folded carton and means for subjecting at least one of said flags to a force which has a tendency to withdraw said flap from the transfer plane in such a manner as to initiate the opening of said tubular body. Provision may be made for means whereby the carton is held by those flaps against which said force is not applied.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagram in isometric perspective showing a carton with twelve faces during execution of the forming operation
  • FIG. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the same carton which, after complete flattening, has just been forced so as to present the flaps in the desired planes;
  • FIG. 3 is an el-evational view of the machine, looking on the side on which the base of the carton is reformed; the direction of forward motion of the cartons during formation is indicated by the arrow 1 and the profile which is shown will accordingly be referred-to as the right-hand profile of the machine;
  • FIG. 4 is a part-sectional view of the machine taken along the line IVIV of FIG. 3 at the level of the skid on which the cartons are conveyed as they pass out of the magazine;
  • FIG. 5 is an overhead view of the complete assembly for cutting and folding back at right angles the projecting portions of the adhesive strip
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of the complete unit for moistening, application and cutting of the sealing strip, the cutting operation being carried out in the direction of the arrow 52;
  • FIG. 7 is a partial plan view in cross-section along the line VIIVII of FIG. 3 which shows more especially the position of different lower ramps relatively to a carton during transfer.
  • numbered references such as 11, whether they are shown or not, always correspond to elements which are symmetrical with elements designated by the reference it relatively to an axial plane of the machine or component.
  • FIG. 1 a starting element of a packing carton 1 of the type having twelve faces on which an arrow 2 indicates the direction of presentation and forward motion.
  • the surfaces 3 and 4 are thus the small rear and front sides in the direction of progression of the carton whilst the surfaces 5 and 6 are the large top and bottom sides on the machine proper;
  • the reference numerals 7 and 8 designate the rear and front flaps which are hinged with the small sides 3 and 4 whilst the reference numerals 9 and 10 designate the top and bottom flaps which are hinged with the large 4 sides 5 and 6.
  • the flaps 7, 8, 9 and 10 in this order form the end of the carton in the closed position whilst the flaps 7, 8, 9 and 10' similarly form the lid or carton cover.
  • the faces 3, 7 and 7, on the one hand, and the faces 4, 8 and 8, on the other hand, as well as the faces 5, 9 and 9' and 6, 10 and 10 are located substantially in the same planes, these planes being very close to each other and almost parallel. It is in accordance with this arrangement that the unprocessed cartons are stacked in the magazine 11 of the machine (as shown in FIG. 3).
  • Said magazine may advantageously be merely a chimney or guide chute formed of angle-iron members and permitting of overhead loading and monitoring by means of a level detector such as an externally-located photoelectric cell unit as has been designated by the reference 12.
  • the extracting and guiding system is constituted by an endless conveyor 13 carried by rolls 14, at least one of which is a driving roll which is provided with automatic braking means and which can be disengaged at will.
  • Said conveyor will advantageously be constituted by two parallel chains which are located at distance from each other which is substantially smaller than the length of the horizontal arris 15 of the carton, said chains being interconnected by spacer members carrying stops or flights such as the flights 16, 17 and 18. Said flights project beyond the external planes defined by the chains to a height which is approximately equal the height of the carton when folded double.
  • the relative positional arrangement of the flights is such that the distance between cartons on the conveyor 13 is greater than the half-perimeter of their cross-section.
  • the ramps 21 and 23, on the one hand, and the ramps 22 and 23', on the other hand, are located in the line of extension of each other and these two groups are parallel at a distance which is slightly greater than the length of the arris 15.
  • the flaps 10 and 10' rest on stationary elements 24-24 under the action of their own weight.
  • these elements Immediately after the axis of the rolls 20 (on the right hand side of FIG. 3), these elements have a V-shaped crosssection which contributes to the correct centering of the starting element; still further to the right, said stationary elements only retain the arm of the V which is represented by the shaded portion in FIG. 4, in such a manner as to free the jaws 28 which are intended to clamp the flaps 10 (or 10') of FIG. 2 in the portion corresponding to the shaded area.
  • These elements or plates will serve as clamping counterparts for dogs 28 and 28' which are actuated by jacks 29 and 29, the function of which will be explained hereunder.
  • the flaps 8 and '9, on the one hand, the flaps 8- and 9, on the other hand, are then lifted substantially to a vertical position as a result of reaction on the ramps 21-23 in the case of the right-hand side of the machine (corresponding to the bases of the cartons) and on the ramps 2223 in the case of the left-hand side of the machine.
  • the carton is then presented as shown diagrammatically in FIG. 2.
  • An end-of-travel signal then stops the move ment of rotation of the moving system.
  • Said moving sy-s tern also carries two jaws 27 and 27' which have carried out a movement of rotation and a downward movement and are separated to a suflicient extent to permit the shaded portion of the flaps 9 and 9' to engage between said jaws, one of which is mounted on the piston of a jack and has a pointed shape.
  • the jaws 27, 27' close and exert a high pressure at one point of the flaps 9 and 9' whilst the dogs 28 and 28 apply that portion of the flaps and 10' which corresponds to the shaded portion of FIG. 2 against the plates 24 and 24'.
  • the jacks 29 and which actuate the dogs 28 and 28' also induce the downward rotation of movable ramps 23 and 23 which then withdraw beneath the transfer lane.
  • the moving system moves upwards, all the jaws or pushers remain in the closed position while rotating in the anticlockwise direction.
  • the body of the carton is then developed until it assumes its rectangular shape.
  • stationary ramps which are not shown in the drawings or levers which are actuated by the moving system close the small rear flaps 7 and 7'.
  • the return of the complete assembly to its initial position initiates by means of a contact which energizes an electrovalve the displacement of the jacks 30 and 30 which actuate levers 31 and 31'. Said levers again close the small front flaps 8 and 8'.
  • the flaps 10 and 9 are brought in the plane of the base, which is already occupied by the flaps 7 and 8, by the lower ramp 21 and the upper ramp 33.
  • These two ramps come closer together towards the plane of the carton base, their arrangement being such that they terminate in horizontal straight lines parallel to the plane of FIG. 3 so as only to maintain the base in the assembled state.
  • the ramps 22 and 34 terminate in a path which is similar but one each side of the carton body at a level relatively to the plane of the conveyors 13 and 32 which is located immediately below in the case of the ramp 22 and immediately above in the case of the ramp 34.
  • the flaps 9' and 10 will therefore be developed toward the exterior, applied and maintained against the outer faces of the sides 5 and 6.
  • the ramp 23 reverts to its initial position with a slight delay with respect to the upward movement of the ramp 23 so as to permit the flap 10' to engage beneath the ramp 22.
  • an adhesive strip 35 such as a gummed strip which is moistened by a device 50 (FIG. 6) is delivered freely from a continuous bobbin (not shown), then applied by a stationary pressing member 51 such as a brush, for example, astride the flaps 9 and 10.
  • a stationary pressing member 51 such as a brush, for example, astride the flaps 9 and 10.
  • the moistening device 50 is disposed in the vicinity of the applicator 51 in such a manner as to reduce the length of strip which has already been moistened and which is liable to dry during stoppage of the movement which may occur for any unspecified reason.
  • the flaps 9 and 10 take up the positions shown at 36 and 37.
  • the rocker unit 38 which has a V-shape at a angle is capable of pivoting about a horizontal axis b under the action of a jack 40.
  • Carton No. 1 can accordingly take up the position which is represented by the rectangles 41 and 42 whilst the second carton which is formed will be located at 36-37 (a third carton then arrives beneath the moving system).
  • the adhesive strip 35 then passes horizontally and on edge from one carton to the other across the space 49, the width of which between the cartons being such as to provide a passageway for the cutting and right-angle folding unit 43 which is shown in FIG. 5.
  • Said unit 43 is essentially made up of a cutoff knife 44 which is rigidly fixed to the rod of a double-acting jack 45, the body of which is secured to the frame of the machine.
  • the cutoff knife carries on each side a flange 47 (47') which is clamped between two rigid backing plates 46 and 46', said flanges being formed of a flexible material having a composition and profile such that the flange ends are very flexible Whilst the core or central portion thereof remains relatively rigid.
  • the total length of both flanges 47 and 47 as indicated by the reference 48 is slightly greater than the space 49 which is left between the formed cartons.
  • the jack 45 is actuated as a result of the correct positioning of the first two cartons formed as indicated by contacts or photoelectric detectors and accordingly thrusts the cutting unit in the direction of the arrow 52.
  • the cutoff knife 44 cuts off the adhesive strip 35 at the center of the space 49 whilst the ends of the flexible flanges 47 and 47' apply the two free halves of the strip against the side-3 of carton No. 1, on the one hand, and against the side corresponding to 4 of the second carton.
  • the backward return motion of the moving unit is initiated as it reaches the end of its forward travel by means of an endof-travel contact.
  • the machine in accordance with the invention is perfectly well suited for insertion in a continuous box-forming chain.
